You're wearing a mix of 6 and 9 month clothes. Pants are the hardest to fit because 6 month is basically too short, but 9 month is way to long in the waist. No actual shoes yet for a size there, but you are still wearing size 3 diapers.

Overall it's taken you some time to really be a fan of food. But you're starting to come around. I will say that we can always count on you to each oranges and pieces of chicken. Because of this I wasn't sure how you'd do eating cake at your birthday party, but you dove right in and devoured every piece you could.

You're still on bottles, although recently you've shown us you're willing to drink milk from a zoli bot straw cap. So there is a hope we can switch for the future. I do think the hardest part of the switch for you has to be the temperature since you like your bottles scalding hot.

September 16

You're not walking yet, instead you're happy to cruise along furniture or use your walker. I think you probably could walk if you wanted to, but you have more important things to do.

September 30

You haven't had your first word yet, but you are a pretty awesome clapper. Also recently you've started waiving and giving high fives.

October 3

You love playing in Kaylee's kitchen, chewing or banging various pieces of food. Although I will say you received a little yellow chair for your birthday and that's starting to become your favorite.

October 5

It's so crazy how fast this year has flown by. It's funny though because you seem so much younger than your sister did at one. Maybe because part of me wants to keep you a baby forever? But I do see glimpses of your personality coming through and I can't wait to see how it develops. Just not quite yet though!
